Q Entertainment, the Japanese developer that's known for its rhythmic puzzle games on the DS and PSP, is stepping into new territory for its next batch of titles. The company announced today plans to create online games for the PC.

The first two PC titles from the company will be Meteos Online and Angel Love Online. Meteos Online is being developed internally at Q and is based on last year's critically acclaimed DS puzzle title. The PC version will feature an online mode supporting cooperative battle and battle royal play, with support for up to six players. Players will be able to customize their characters visually, and in terms of animation and voice.

Angel Love Online is being developed by Taiwan-based Userjoy Technology. The massively multiplayer online RPG will be distributed and operated in Japan by Q. In Taiwan, the game entered beta testing one month ago and has already reached a landmark of 50,000 simultaneous users.

Q is planning a user-friendly pricing scheme for both titles. Pricing will be based on items, allowing players to play the game for free, but requiring cash to purchase new items. Specifics will be detailed in the future.
